W. Allen Declares Quality of Fruit is Menaced by Failure of Or-chardL-ts to Properly Thin Fruit Usefulness of Trees Has Also Been Impaired. That the quality of Umatilla coun ty's fruit crop is menaced by the fail ure of orchardists to properly thin their fruit, is the statement made to day by R. W. Allen, superintendent of the Umatilla experiment farm at Hermiston. Not only is the quality of this year's crop in danger but the usefulness of the trees for succeed ing years is in grave danger of being impaired. Superintendent Allen says: "The prospect of the present sea son is for a very heavy crop of fruit. The trees, generally, are heavily loaded, and as a result many are breaking down. If the fruit had been properly thinned this trouble could have been avoided and the trees kept in good shape. "To prevent the breaking of trees is a minor reason for thinning, but it is the most readily noticed by most people. Fruit should be thinned to prevent this breaking and destruction of the trees, to give the remaining fruit an opportunity to develop properly, which it can not do when the trees are overloaded, and to not overwork the trees and weaken them, thus mak- A Reliable Remedy FOR CATARRH Ely's Cream Balm ( quickly absorbed.

"To be done properly this work should be started as soon as it is seen that too much fruit has set on the tiee, or by the time it is as large as a thimble. If done at that time, but little if any further attention will be needed unless It is found that on account of drougth or weakness in the tree it can not mature its crop properly, it should be gone over again and more fruit removed. This work is more necessary on peaches, pears and apples than on the other kinds, and is especially needed this year. "Although it should have been done earlier in the season for best results to have been obtained, a great deal of good can be had from thinning at this time. In fact many trees throughout this part of the county can't possibly mature the enormous load of fruit which they are now carrying. If the present conditions are allowed to prevail this years crop will be a disappointment, for the fruit, especially peaches and ap ples will not be of marketable size. The varieties that are almost ma ture can not be benefited, but the later ones can. "The thinning should be done by hand. Pick off the smaller and mls shapen stuff, leaving the rest, one in a place, and from 4 to 6 inches apart. Never leave two peaches or apples to hang together. Should one be at tacked by a moth, the other will doubtless be attacked in a short time, and two fruits are too much of a load for one twig. "The extra load of this year is borne to the expense of future crops, for an overworked tree is very similar to im exhausted animal. It requires some time for It to regain its normal vitality and fruitfulness whereas if it is not overtaxed there is a possi bility that It will yield next year, otherwise there is little chance of it. The proper thinning of the fruit coupled with systematic pruning, good cultivation and the proper am ount of water influence to a marked degree the annual cropping and ul timate greater production of our orchards."
